Day to Day

My work is different every day because there is a lot that goes into it. I implement policies, approve project acquisitions, monitor spending, assign job titles, and make decisions about how the company operates. I am also responsible for overseeing all the departments within the company, including the editorial and production departments. My role is to help grow the work of authors and illustrators, but also grow the work of the creative community.

Skills & Qualities Beyond School

When thinking about a career in publishing, you should be thinking about what you can bring to this book or format that no other publisher can bring. Having a true passion for the gift of reading is essential.

The Noise I Shed

From Myself:

"I don't want to get involved in a career that's similar to what I've been studying for four years in college. "

My college experience majoring in English was very focused and, after graduating, I wasn't sure if I wanted to work in a field that was similar. I gave myself a year to figure out what I wanted to do, so I learned how to be a secretary (because that's what women did back then). I eventually realized that the reason I chose to study English in the first place was that I loved to read. This made my transition to publishing very easy and clear.
